MessageYou might note that there is a difference between forcing Qi, and allowing it to flow through guided cultivation!!!
By the way, the "te" or virtue has ALWAYS been historically associated with the vital Jing Shen (the organs), thus cultivation of virtue is body cultivation, although only semi local as the shen are on a different vibrational frequency.
One
1. The vital jing of all things:
2. It is this that brings them to life.
3. It generates the five grains below
4. And becomes the constellated stars above.
5. When flowing amid the heavens and the earth
6. We call it ghostly and spirit (shen).
7. When stored within the chests of human beings,
8. We call them sages.
(note: if it is stored in the chests of human beings, isn't is semi-local, and how does it get there? through cultivation!)
Six
1. As for the way:
2. It is what the mouth cannot speak of,
3. The eyes cannot see,
4. And the ears cannot hear.
5. It is that with which we cultivate the Yi (intent) and align the body.
cultivation through body alignment!!! Thoughts in the english translation is actually the chinese term for Yi, the spleen shen!!!!!!!!! also the earth element!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eight
1. If you can be aligned and be tranquil,
2. Only then can you be stable.
3. With a stable heart at your core,
4. With the eyes and ears acute and clear,
5. And with the four limbs firm and fixed,
6. You can thereby make a lodging place for the vital jing.
7. The vital Jing: it is the essence of the vital Qi.
8. When the vital Qi is guided, it is generated,
Note: When the Qi is guided, it is generated!!!!!!
When it is guided!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is not Qi forcing or controlling.
